I had the use case once as I fixed ctypes' COMError for 3.0a2 but it was
easier to change the code than to come up with a generic wrapper type.
A wrapper which takes a PyCFunction is definitely helpful and would make
code porting from 2.x to 3.0 easier. I'm +1 to add one.
Marcin, can you come up with a patch?
